Frequently Asked Questions:
When is the best time to start tutoring?
There is no better time than now! Tutoring isn’t just for those that are struggling – it also provides advanced students an opportunity to feel challenged and refine their skills. Having someone partner with you to bring out the best in your child is completely invaluable – and we recommend it at every age and level.
Does my child need a tutor?
Tutoring is for more than just those who struggle. In fact, you will usually find the students at the top of the class are there BECAUSE they have a tutor. Your tutor will become a partner in your child’s education journey, bridging the gap between home and the classroom. We believe every single student has something to gain from the support of an Alchemy tutor – and we know you will see this too.
Are there contracts or do I pay in advance?
No – there are no contracts and we are entirely pay as you go. We use an automated payment system that simply charges your debit or credit card 24 hours after each lesson occurs.
Will my tutor provide content and resources?
Yes – your tutor will have full access to our resource centre which contains thousands of worksheets, practice tests and text books. They will tailor every lesson around your child’s needs and design a unique program for them. To avoid waste we encourage our tutors to use digital worksheets so may bring a tablet or laptop – if you’d prefer to have them printed your tutor can send them to you ahead of a lesson for you to print at home.
How long does each lesson go for?
We leave this up to you to discuss with your tutor – but most of our students do between 1-2 hours per week. Our data shows that students see the most progress when they do a 1.5 hour lesson each week. There is no need to agree to a fixed session length – your tutor simply logs the length of session after each lesson occurs (with your prior agreement of course!).
Will my child have an assessment?
Yes. In the first lesson your tutor will deliver an assessment on your child, seeing where their strengths and weaknesses lie. After the session, your tutor will discuss their findings with you and send them through to you by email. From there, they will then develop a 10-week strategy to see your child reach their goals.
Why choose Alchemy over other options?
There are so many reasons, but the one thing we are most proud of is what makes us who we are. Alchemy is the medieval science of turning metals in to gold. It is the act of taking the ordinary and making it extraordinary – something our tutors do with our students every single day. The Alchemy difference is that we care about so much more than just marks. This resonates in everything we do – from the tutors we hire through to the lessons we plan. We want to see your child perform at their very best in all aspects of life – and not just in the classroom. It is this passion for so much more than just academic results that gives us the reputation we have – with thousands of verified 5-star reviews online.
How do you monitor progress?
We test students regularly to monitor improvements. The frequency of this will be up to your tutor, and you are welcome to discuss this with them in the first session to work out a testing cycle that is ideal for your child.
How often will lessons happen?
We recommend weekly sessions for every student. Consistency is so important in education, so irregular lessons may halt your child’s progress.
Is the first lesson a free trial lesson?
No – but it is covered by our first session 100% happiness guarantee. This means that if you are not 100% convinced the tutor we have lined up for you is the right tutor for your child, the session is on us and we can organise someone else that better suits your needs. If however you are happy to continue (and we are confident that you will be!) then we charge you for the first session when you submit payment details.

If your child needs English tutoring for their HSC, we’re here to help
At Alchemy Tuition, we have the best HSC English tutors in Sydney. We work with children of all levels, from bottom to top, and our tutors all have high levels of experience working with students to reach their goals. A lot of tutors around Sydney are more focussed on teaching your children to get the right grades, but we’re also here to improve attitudes and confidence towards learning. We don’t just want you to pass, or just to learn, we want you to enjoy learning.
Each lesson is tailored to your child’s personal needs, so we try to match every child with the right tutor for them – it’s not one size fits all.
English is a compulsory subject in HSC and one of the only two unities that count towards your ATAR, which is why much emphasis is put on English. It’s imperative that students perform well in the subject to guarantee a good ATAR score that brings them closer to pursuing the course of their dreams. With our HSC English tutors, we can help students improve on any challenges, weaknesses, or learning gaps that could be affecting their performance. We also work with gifted students who want to study ahead of the teacher.
Maths Extension 1 & 2 are the highest scaling ATAR subjects in HSC, requiring students to take the highest level of maths they can. But you can only leverage this benefit if you do well in the subject. We have qualified HSC maths tutors that can help you understand the concepts and develop a love for learning maths that will ensure you make the most out of the maths subjects you select.
At the end of Year 12, you will sit for the most important exam of your academic life, the HSC. The results of these exams will be used to calculate your ATAR and ultimately determine the course you can pursue in public universities. With our test preparation, we will help you create and follow an effective revision schedule and give you tips to help you maximise your potential and results.
We also have qualified tutors for other subjects in HSC, including drama, economics, geography, history, languages, music, and PRS, among others. No matter the student’s needs, we have capable tutors to help every student achieve their goals.
